Life from the Ashes by Jo B. (NC-17)
Fandom: X-FILES
Pairing: Mulder / Skinner / Krycek
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: Fan Fiction by Jo B.
Why this must be read:
This series of stories has to qualify as one of the most bizarre in X-Files fandom, and given the unusual events that qualify as canon in the TV series, that’s saying a lot! The author describes “Life from the Ashes” as an “Alternative Universe scifi-fantasy story”. It begins shortly after the consortium has been exposed and aliens release a deadly virus on Earth, which begins to kill off all the women and mutate the men. And you’ll never believe where it goes from there!
The series could be subtitled “Everyone wants Mulder”. For those who enjoy Mulder in various degrees of jeopardy, being rescued over and over again, this is the series for you. But as outlandish as the premise and description may sound, the story is solid – well-written and entertaining, with lots of hot sex, great original characters and locations. It’s just a very fun, enjoyable read. Just suspend your disbelief, and look forward to the end of the series where Mulder, Skinner, and Krycek are living a very comfortable existence together with more children than you’d want to imagine.
The series, which is long and satisfying, takes place in a series of five books plus a prequel. Read them in order, and make sure you don’t have any pressing work to do – once you get involved in the story you won’t want to stop for the days / weeks it’ll take you to read the whole series!
